You're checking if your motherboard supports higher RAM speeds. The spec lists up to 3200 MHz, but that doesn't necessarily mean you can't use faster RAM—only that your system is compatible with the maximum supported frequency. If you have a 3600 MHz RAM, it should work as long as your motherboard supports it.

You have the freedom to choose any speed for your RAM. The concern is whether it will remain consistent.

The MSI guidelines indicate compatibility with up to 3200MHz DDR4 memory, though using higher speeds might cause a slight slowdown to 3200MHz. It’s not advised to exceed this limit.

It's likely you won't find a 3600MHz XMP profile available. Since you can't overclock the A320, you also won't be able to reach those speeds yourself. Keep in mind that such high performance isn't expected from this low-end board, especially for the CPU. The 2200G features a first-gen Ryzen chip with a basic memory controller, making a stable 3200MHz even uncertain.

It depends on the current price and expected value. Comparing 3600 to 3200 or 3600 suggests evaluating which option offers better returns.

Yes, you can set up other types of DDR4 memory like 3600MHz RAM, even though it will operate at 3200MHz. It’s possible to use RAM that runs slower than 1866MHz, but it will run at the speed of the slower part—whether due to your motherboard or the RAM itself.

Suggest purchasing an upgraded board, such as the MSI ProSeries B450-A PRO.

Unless you plan to use the memory on another motherboard that supports 3600MHz DDR4 later, there’s little need to purchase 3600MHz DDR4 RAM unless it matches or is very close to the 3200MHz version.

My setup is a B450M/AC with an XMP profile set at 3200, which works well for my needs.

The specifications indicate only single-channel 8GB RAM is listed, meaning you likely won’t be able to use more than that unless you upgrade or choose a different configuration.
